Senior Lead AI Application Engineer (Global Security)

About this role

Job Description

What is the Opportunity?

As the Senior Lead AI Application Engineer, you will lead multi-agentic application software engineering and full-stack delivery of secure, cloud native microservices that embed pragmatic AI. You will build production UIs and APIs that orchestrate agent workflows end to end, integrate seamlessly with RBC’s CI/CD, observability, and security pipelines, and operate reliably in regulated environments. Leveraging LLMs, data pipelines, and GPU/multi cloud stacks, you will deliver resilient, scalable services that automate complex risk and security controls, accelerate regulatory readiness, and enable safe, auditable AI behaviors. You will set standards, build reusable components, and mentor engineers across platforms and product teams.

What will you do?

• Design, build, and operate full‑stack agentic applications: React/TypeScript front‑ends and secure back‑end services (Node.js/Express or Python/FastAPI or Java/Spring Boot) exposing REST/gRPC/GraphQL APIs; deliver UIs and APIs that orchestrate agent workflows end‑to‑end.
• Engineer multi‑agent systems (plan/act/reflect, tool use, delegation) with robust state and coordination across services; implement failure handling, retries, and idempotency using frameworks such as LangGraph or AutoGen.
• Deliver CI/CD and platform automation: Docker images, GitHub Actions/Jenkins/Argo CD, IaC (Terraform/Helm), Kubernetes deployments, release/rollback and change‑control aligned to RBC standards.
• Implement context and data layers for agents: connectors (incl. MCP) to enterprise systems, streaming/eventing (Kafka), caching (Redis), vector search (pgvector/Milvus/Pinecone), and schema/PII controls to keep actions grounded and compliant.
• Build reusable SDKs, APIs, and templates for agent capabilities (inference, tools, RAG) with clear interfaces, code samples, and internal packages to accelerate teams.
• Establish runtime controls and observability: OpenTelemetry traces/metric...
